Story
Odie is a very sweet 10 year old man who needs a home where he's the only kid around. He's been progressively stressed out by the addition of dog, playful cat, and now two kids. He's very snuggly, loves fiercely, and is such a good boy but he just cannot be in a house with activity. His ideal house would be one where it's just him and his humans. He loves toys (it will take him a little bit to show it), goes hard for catnip, and is always down for a goo tube treat.

Story
Born on 4-20, the coolest bday makes it the coolest kitty. This Kitty also has 4 other 420 siblings up for adoption so you can take home as many cool kitties as you want. I don’t know if it’s a boy or girl because I get it wrong too often so it comes as a surprise. The mom and dad are very mellow and cuddly all day long. No health issues, litter trained, and ready for you to get your cool home ready for your new cool cat family.

Story
Synnove is just about 8 months. He's very anxious but once he warms up he loves to be pet. Not comfortable with being picked up but will sit on your lap when he wants to be close. Synnove has been lonely and a bit depressed since we had to rehome our second cat so a home with other cats would be good for him. He's also very playful so I recommend plenty of toys and space for him. With my health conditions, I just can't afford to take care of him anymore.

Story
I’ve had Nuri for 4 years, she was my first pet I got on my own. She’s a very sweet girl, with a great temperament and can be a little anxious at times. She needs a companion who is gentle, and nurturing. She would probably do best in a household with older kids, where she is the only cat, but she’s also done well with living with other cats too. I would love to keep her, but my new place doesn’t allow pets.

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLX_xd3O-rZ8I&si=SBTqUoZbIAXgjZg0Huge stray cat problem behind my apartment. These little angels need a new home. They have started weaning and using a litter box. They will be ready to start leaving the nest 8/14. Sorry, I cannot afford to take them all to a vet. I was there when they were born and I care about their future. Convince me you have plans to get them to a vet, and that you will share a few updates with me post adoption and they can start their new life with you.

Story
This cat is participating in our Camp Purr working cat program, which is designed for feral or semi-feral cats that would be happiest living outside as working cats. Adopters must provide shelter and food/water to these cats year-round and need to be willing to work with our Camp Purr team to ensure these cats are acclimated appropriately and humanely to their new environment. Because these cats are familiar with the other cats they are living with currently, we require that all Camp Purr cats be adopted with at least one other Camp Purr cat. The adoption fee for each cat in this program is just $25, and all cats have been spayed/neutered, microchipped and vaccinated. HOW TO ADOPT: These cats are available by appointment only to ensure our team has adequate time to assist you. To get started, please answer a few questions here and a Camp Purr Counselor will email you soon. Primary Color: Tabby Secondary Color: White Weight: 3.2 Age: 0yrs 3mths 4wks
